Jason Derulo was the victim of a burglary on Friday. The singer was not at his Los Angeles home at the time when approximately $300,000 in jewelry and cash was stolen from him. The police are currently investigating what they suspect might have been an inside job.

One of Derulo’s staffers realized the home was robbed and called the cops. The police waited until Derulo arrived back in L.A. to go over what was taken. It appears thieves got into his house by breaking a door and a window and before heading straight to where the money and jewelry was. While the singer has not mentioned the robbery on social media, he noted he planned on celebrating his 28th birthday in Hollywood on Sunday.

Derulo is just the latest celebrity to have been burglarized. In July, Hilary Duff had thousands of dollars worth of jewelry robbed from her Beverly Hills home. Emmy Rossum’s house was earlier targeted in March. Thieves gained access to her safe and stole $150,000 in jewelry. That same month, Jaime Pressly’s Sherman Oaks house was home jacked, with crooks taking her jewelry and a laptop. And in February, Alanis Morissette had her home burglarized, with an astounding $2 million worth of jewelry grabbed from her Brentwood house.

Others who have been hit include Scott Disick. In May 2016, while he was in Cannes, robbers helped themselves to several of his pricey watches. Around the same time, Blac Chyna’s house was also robbed, with the perpetrators making off with $200,000 in jewelry and cash. Also, Kevin Hart had his Tarzana home broken into in June 2016. During that incident, while the comedic actor was away, thieves stole $500,000 worth of clothes, jewelry and watches.

It is not believed that Derulo’s theft is connected to the other string of burglaries in Los Angeles. In fact, police are fairly confident that many of the other celebrities mentioned were not necessarily targeted, but rather that robbers were simply hitting some of the nicer neighborhoods where several stars happen to live.
